Nice idea, more exposure on the face would help, and it looks like a pucker, but the flame is blowing in - confusing, maybe as intended?

Hope you don't get hit by the 'too dark' crowd. You've done a great job with difficult lighting. I like it a lot.

The candle on the face makes for an interesting lighting effect.

Nice! Good job on the exposure and a very subtle depiction of the challenge topic.

this is bizarre.. if he/she is blowing the flame would be going in the other direction.. unless he/she is inhaling?

I quite like this, though I can't put my finger on why exactly (not very helpful, is it). It's just... nice :)
